Posts - Bill - HR 5961 Flood Insurance for Farmers Act of 2025
house 11/07/2025 - 119th Congress
We are working to make flood insurance more accessible for agricultural structures in high-risk areas by allowing state and local officials to grant practical variances, ensuring farmers can protect their property without unnecessary restrictions. Additionally, we aim to offer optional umbrella policies that provide broader coverage for multiple structures on the same property.
